Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare benign skeletal disorder that replaces normal bone with fibrous tissue and immature woven bone. We present a case of a 13-year-old girl with right-sided facial swelling and craniofacial deformity since birth, accompanied by nasal obstruction and difficulty in breathing and swallowing. Computed tomography (CT) imaging revealed an expansile bony lesion with a ground-glass matrix involving multiple craniofacial bones. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of FD. Management involved regular monitoring and conservative measures, with surgical intervention reserved for symptomatic progression or cosmetic concerns. This case underscores the importance of considering FD in the differential diagnosis of craniofacial asymmetry and highlights the collaborative approach to patient care. Further research is needed to optimize management strategies and outcomes for pediatric patients with FD.
纤维发育不良(FD)是一种罕见的良性骨骼疾病,其特征是正常骨组织被纤维组织和未成熟的编织骨所替代。我们报告一例13岁女孩,自出生以来右侧面部肿胀并伴有颅面畸形,同时伴有鼻塞、呼吸和吞咽困难。计算机断层扫描(CT)成像显示一个膨胀性骨病变,其磨玻璃样基质累及多块颅面骨。组织病理学检查确诊为FD。治疗包括定期监测和保守措施,手术干预仅用于症状进展或出于美容考虑的情况。该病例强调了在颅面不对称的鉴别诊断中考虑FD的重要性,并突出了患者护理的协作方法。需要进一步研究以优化FD患儿的管理策略和治疗效果。
